About this house rental
A former rectory in 1600 which unites within its walls the silence and the secrets of everyday life peasant. To comply with its spirit any radical intervention upset the building: so the past can live in harmony with the modern needs. In attics, where once gathered supplies for the winter, there are now bedrooms framed by small windows: small pictures that they find between patches of olive and cypress walls of Perugia. In the distance Mount Subasio Assisi with its rich history and spirituality. Annexed there is a chapel (1659) dedicated to the Annunciation: its belfry vigil discreetly on the house and the garden of fragrant lavender and herbs.

Olivella was a very special place to stay! We loved the historical nature of the building and furnishings. How often do you have the opportunity to stay in a building from the 1600's? The kitchen is very functional and we enjoyed cooking a few meals and eating in the dining room. The host met us and showed us around the property; it's gated and very secure. Thank you Piergiorgio for offering such a unique property as a rental!

Very nice old house, plenty of space. The garden is huge and very natural, the pool is larger than it appears in the pictures. Though being surrounded by other houses, you have the feeling of being completely isolated in the middle of nowhere, but still within a 15-minutes drive to Perugia center. A very well equipped supermarket is just a 6-minutes drive away. The communication with the owner was very prompt and friendly.

The house was just as we expected it, nestled in the beautiful Umbrian hillside. We loved the space and all the amazing treasures around every corner. The pool was wonderful after visits to all the amazing towns in the area. Piergiorgio was fantastic, he welcomed us on arrival and was really helpful with recommendations during our stay. We had a wonderful week, thank you

WOW, what an amazingly beautiful property. It is the fulfillment of everyone's dream of the house you want to live in for the rest of your life. Full of history, antiques, charm and comfort it truly is the perfect vacation home.
The location is beautiful and convenient, overlooking a valley and gorgeous sunsets. While there we saw the most amazing DOUBLE RAINBOW that any of us had ever seen. The house is very close to Perugia, one the most beautiful towns in Italy and close to other gorgeous towns such as Assisi, Spoleto and Spello.
Piergiorgio and his mother were the most gracious, accommodating and warm hosts imaginable. I highly recommend a vacation in this amazing home in a truly breathtaking part of Italy.
